Article about Michele Bachmann's holy war in Rolling Stone

I just finished this article by Matt Taibbi in Rolling Stone about Michele Bachmann and wanted to pass it on.

From the article:
"Michele was a member of [O.W. Coburn School of Law's] inaugural class in 1979.  Originally a division of Oral Roberts University, this august academy, dedicated to the teaching of "the law from a biblical worldview," has gone through no fewer than three names — including the Christian Broadcasting Network School of Law. Those familiar with the darker chapters in George W. Bush's presidency might recognize the school's current name, the Regent University School of Law. Yes, this was the tiny educational outhouse that, despite being the 136th-ranked law school in the country, where 60 percent of graduates flunked the bar, produced a flood of entrants into the Bush Justice Department."
